Creativity and New Media


         New media is unlike traditional media that has many constraints, such as low flexibility, high cost, and a limited reach. New media allows people to spread information and resources cheaply to more people. The ad that I have created using AdMaker is an example of creativity fostered by new media. Anyone can create an ad by using AdMaker to create an advertising campaign to convey their message. People can put their own creative ideas on the design of their promotional campaign and decide how to show their audience the promotion. What I have done is making a promotional ad for the New Media course from Baruch College. Then, I can use this image to post on many popular social networks to make more people aware of the promotion. Therefore, new media fosters creativity by allowing people to create contents for free and share it on the internet.  





This website allows user to create free custom ads and promotions. You can choose the background, text, layout, color, and size to fully customize your own ads.
